Su Yaoyao was restless and didn't fall asleep until the sky gradually turned light.
When she woke up, Yu Chiyan still hadn't returned.
Su Yaoyao felt a tightness in her chest. After getting up and washing up, she went downstairs and had breakfast with Old Madam Yu.
Since Madam Yu didn't see Yu Chiyan, she did ask him a question.
"Where is Yu Chiyan?"
Su Yaoyao paused for a moment while holding her chopsticks, then offered a casual explanation.
"He had something to do, so he left before dawn."
I went out around 10 p.m. last night, before dawn, didn't I?
Not only that, he didn't return home all night.
However, she didn't want to tell the old lady these things, lest the old lady start to overthink things.
Madam Yu didn't think much of it. After all, Yu Chiyan was managing the company's affairs all by himself. It was normal for him to be busy and go to work early from time to time, so she didn't ask any more questions.
After breakfast, Su Yaoyao personally cooked soup and asked Aunt Zhang to pack it up.
"Madam, are you taking this to the company for the young master?"
Aunt Zhang chatted as she prepared the clothes.
Su Yaoyao smiled and said, "No, I have a friend who is not feeling well and is hospitalized. I'm going to visit him."
Aunt Zhang nodded upon hearing this; "I see."
She sealed the box, put it in an insulated bag, and then handed it to Su Yaoyao.
"Madam, it's done."
Su Yaoyao accepted it with both hands and politely said thank you.
Aunt Zhang smiled and waved her hand; "Madam, you don't need to be so polite with me. By the way, Madam, would you like me to prepare a car for you?"
Su Yaoyao replied without looking up, "No need, I'll go out and get a taxi later."
Yu's car was too conspicuous, and she didn't like being stared at. She wouldn't ride in Yu's car unless it was absolutely necessary.
An hour later.
Su Yaoyao arrived at the hospital.
When Huo Xiting saw her arrive, a smile appeared on his pale, handsome face.
"You've arrived."
Su Yaoyao nodded, placed the food box on the table, and opened it.
"I asked the housekeeper to make you some soup to help you recover."
As Su Yaoyao spoke, she deftly poured out a small bowl of milky white fish soup.
"Try it and see how it tastes. If you like it, I'll bring you more."
Huo Xiting couldn't lean back, so he used a pillow to prop himself up while lying on the bed. When he saw Su Yaoyao handing him the soup, he smiled and then tried to reach out to take it with some effort, but accidentally pulled at his wound, making him wince in pain.
"hiss……"
Su Yaoyao's expression changed, and she quickly reached out to hold him down, preventing him from moving any further.
"Never mind, don't move, I'll feed you."
Huo Xiting raised an eyebrow with a smile, his voice somewhat relaxed; "What, are you worried about me?"
He rarely acted so irreverently, and Su Yaoyao couldn't help but glare at him. "Be serious, or I'll drink all the soup in front of you and leave you nothing."
Huo Xiting was 'frightened' by her words and indeed fell silent.
The ward was quiet. Su Yaoyao held a spoon and fed the fish soup spoonful by spoonful.
The soup tasted delicious and wasn't fishy at all.
Huo Xiting's gaze fell on Su Yaoyao's clean and bright face. After finishing a bowl of soup, he felt as if his body and heart were warmed.
"Want more?"
Seeing that he seemed to like it very much, Su Yaoyao asked another question.
Huo Xiting nodded without hesitation.
Bowl after bowl, Su Yaoyao quietly fed Huo Xiting three bowls of fish soup.
There was a little bit left, but Su Yaoyao didn't feed him any more.
Eating too much of anything is bad.
She was about to leave with her lunchbox when Huo Xiting hurriedly called out to her, "Yaoyao."
Su Yaoyao paused, turned around to look at him; "What's wrong?"
Huo Xiting pursed his lips; "Are you coming again tomorrow?"
Su Yaoyao waved the food box in her hand; "Here you go, I'll give you a different flavor tomorrow."
Huo Xiting chuckled softly upon hearing this; "Okay."
"Then you should rest well. I'll go out and take care of some things."
Huo Xiting nodded with a faint smile; "Okay, I understand."
Watching Su Yaoyao's departing figure, Huo Xiting shook his head and chuckled. In order to enjoy her care, he had actually drunk so much that his stomach was full.
Huo Xiting looked at the white pillow, a self-deprecating expression on his face.
She's just a woman, why did he have to make himself look like this?
...
Su Yaoyao had just stepped out of the hospital with the food box when Jiang Wen called.
"how's it going?"
As soon as the call connected, she asked some questions with a hint of urgency.
Jiang Wen's tone was very serious: "Yaoyao, that girl named Chaoyan is a die-hard fan of Su Qingqing, the really die-hard kind."
Su Yaoyao was taken aback; "Tell me more details."
Jiang Wen exhaled and slowly began to speak: "That Asagao is a high school bully, the real deal. More importantly, Su Qingqing already had a connection with him before she became a star."
Su Yaoyao gripped her phone, her knuckles turning slightly white; "What connection?"
"More than five months ago, that boy named Chaoyan had arranged a fight with someone, but he was outnumbered and almost got beaten to death. It was Su Qingqing who saved him."
Su Yaoyao was stunned; "Su Qingqing actually does good deeds?"
Jiang Wen remained silent for a while before speaking: "Perhaps she had something to hide at the time and was thinking of doing a good deed to accumulate merit for herself."
Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao was completely confused; "What do you mean?"
Jiang Wen spoke in a low voice, "Do you remember what happened five months ago, the night before you agreed to marry Yu Chiyan in place of Su Qingqing?"
Su Yaoyao's body stiffened instantly, and she felt a chill.
How could she forget...?
That was the most desperate day of her life.
"Yaoyao, Su Qingqing called the police on the way out of the hotel that night."
So that's how it is...
A cold smile appeared on Su Yaoyao's face.
She looked up at the somewhat gloomy sky.
This is really unfair. Su Qingqing did so much to her, but she didn't get any retribution.
She was violated by someone hired by Su Qingqing. Feeling guilty, she made a random phone call and saved someone. That person then risked everything to throw sulfuric acid at her.
It's almost as if even God is on Su Qingqing's side.
After finishing her phone call with Jiang Wen, Su Yaoyao decided to go to the police station.
She didn't believe that the minor would throw sulfuric acid at her without Su Qingqing's instigation.
Half an hour later.
The car stopped at the entrance of the police station, and Su Yaoyao got out and walked directly into the lobby.
A staff member saw her and asked what she was there for. Su Yaoyao said she was looking for Chaoyan. Unexpectedly, the staff member was surprised for a moment, and then told her...
"Asagao is the underage one, right? He's already been taken away by his family."
Su Yaoyao was stunned; "He's gone? He's resolved the matter of the acid attack?"
"It's resolved. The victim's family accepted the apology yesterday. The boy was given a few words of advice and his parents took him home. After all, he's a minor, and we can't just lock him up."
